[🇵🇰] Will Pakistan ever function as a secular state?

[MuHayMin]

Pakistan used to have a solid secular movement in Peshawar before 1947. Many people do not know this fact. Peshawar used to be the socialist hub of the Subcontinent until military juntas on the British payroll in the post-1947 period destroyed it and turned it into what it is today.

Most Pakistani immigrants are usually more religious than the actual Pakistani people. Most immigrants come from low-income neighborhoods of Pakistan that have always struggled economically. They took their religious memes with them when they migrated. Memes work quite the same way as genes, which transfer from generation to generation and replicate.

This reminds me of British Pakistanis. They are wearing Arabic Throbes etc. Probably the same case in Europe. I think the Amercian diaspora is to an extent better.
Look people from poor backgrounds all over the world turn to religion, it's give hope. Anyone would.

The American diaspora is very different, except in some big cities like NY. We American Pakistanis make more money than the average American white, and that is also much higher than the American national average. Usually, the most educated and upper-echelon Pakistanis come to live in the USA.

If you are religious, it’s a dead give away that yous from a lower middle class background.

A mazhabi is not possible unless hes been struggling and the parents/ grandparents have dehati origins.

Religiosity Highest in World's Poorest Nations

Religiosity is strongly related to per-capita income worldwide. In the poorest countries Gallup surveyed in 2009, a median of 95% of adults say religion is an important part of their daily lives, compared with 47% who say the same in the world's richest countries.

I have seen some rich countries which are fairly religious. Like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Oman, Portugal, Italy, Greece, Poland, Morocco, Malaysia, and Brunei.

Being poor and religious is just a stereotype.

Look at Sultan of Brunei, he is filthy rich and rules his country according to Islamic edicts.

Correct! But they still shia no? Last 400 years same mazhabi firqa bhai. Look at our situation bro….just 100 years ago most of us were hindu or sikh. We just converted in last century..Dr Salman has done a whole program on this subject bhai. Millions converted when partition happened to avoid being dispossessed of their land and holdings.

Yes Sir. I agree with you
